Pre TTC baby brain - My intro

LaStella25

Hello!  I have been sneaking around the Bump for a couple of days now.  I have already learned so much from you!  I wanted to introduce myself and give a little backround.

I am 31 years old and my husband is also 31.  We have been married for almost one year.  I want to have three children, because both of our families are really small.  

We have decided to stop taking birth control about 2 weeks ago.  I still have to wait for my cycle to end, so it will still be a few weeks before I even ovulate.

Since we have even had the TALK my brain has turned to mush.  I have made more mistakes/mishaps/accidents, you name it!  I work in my office all day, so most people don't even realize all the problems I have created for myself.  The problems that have surfaced, I think they are chalking up to me just being really busy.  I used to have an assistant before the market crashed, and now we are back, busier than ever, and I'm trying to do it all myself.  Even silly things, like I had three paper cuts on my right hand LAST WEEK ALONE. My biggest concern is keeping my business running smoothly, and I think it's making me CRAZY.

Remember the "this is your brain....this is your brain on drugs" commercials from the 80's???? Yeah, that's my brain!  I'm only assuming that once we get pregnant, it will be 100 times worse!

I look forward to getting to know all of you!

Hello!

Welcome! I work in an office and one of the women who is pregnant there has wicked pregnancy brain. I chuckle a lot when I watch her screw up tasks she never used to. She says being pregnant is more distracting than baby wearing her 1st in the office was.

Good Luck!

Welcome! Sounds like you have to reign in the baby fever if its affecting your job. That's intense. GL.

Thanks, ladies!  Hopefully I will get an assistant in the next few months, and I can get some help on the tedious tasks.  I plan on going part-time once I'm a mother. I will be able to bring baby to the office with me, so that will help a lot.
